well if you are writing an essay you must be interested in the topic other wise it wil not flow and it will be ill eloquent. I am a writer and I always need to write on something that is inspiring or makes a spark in your mind. Try writing persuasive essays they are the easiest essays to write they are pretty much just trying to persuade your reader to agree with you so it is just stating your opinion I hope I helped

in addition to the last, the structure matters as much as your topic. the way you convey your opinion could determine the success of your paper. you could write about the importance of feeding laboradors with blue colored dog dishes, and as you do so eloquently, you're golden.

All really prominent schools and universities want a scholarly,analytical topic to be supported by a well-developed thesis. You have to be completely knowledgable about what you are writing, and make your opinions/statements stand out from the thousands of other students.

I understand you are homeschooled and might have a disadvantage over other people that have learned the tricks of the trade but all you need to know is the outlines and structure of how to write an essay, and you can find examples online.

Find a topic that you can argue well. It can be something personal, political, or social.

Right now, I'm writing a topic on how Advertising influences American culture. By using provokative images, slang, appealing people, advertisements can manipulate what consumers do with their money and time. I added my opinions on it and how it affects my life.

With topics such as this, you demonstrate research, experience, and knowledge and put it into a well thought out paper. Colleges love this.
